I'd say no.

That way, maximum space-saving can be garnered. Probably the NFC_DEBUG name was misleading - the debug table has no connection with the internal debugging of netfilter. That can already be done by compiling the kernel with debugging enabled. The debug table would be an aid for rule debugging so that one could follow how a packet traverses the tables, chains and rules.
